Art Camp
Im worried about art camp. I wont know
anyone there, Brian said.
Dont worry about it, his mom said. Youll
see. Itll be fine.
When Brian walked into the camp meeting
room, he swallowed hard. Most of the tables
were full of kids talking and laughing with
each other. There was only one spot open, and
it was at a table way in the back.
There were three other kids at the tableAlex,
Kenya, and Mike. They all knew each other,
but they were happy to talk to Brian, too. Brian
no longer felt nervous. By the time he went
home, he knew he had a new set of friends for
the summer.
Marys Canary
Mary had a pretty bird,
Feathers bright and yellow,
Slender legsupon my word
He was a pretty fellow!
The sweetest note he always sung,
Which much delighted Mary.
She often, where the cage was hung,
Sat hearing her canary.
